Describe Dr. Jekyll and; Mr.Hyde.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a 1931 American Pre-Code horror film directed by Rouben Mamoulian and starring Fredric March. The film is an adaptation of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), the Robert Louis Stevenson tale of a man who takes a potion which turns him from a mild-mannered man of science into a homicidal maniac. March’s performance has been much lauded, and earned him his first Academy Award.There are several screen versions based on Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic. Ths film version is the most highly acclaimed ,although I would also recommend taking a look at the silent screen version, 1920, starring John Barrymore (Drew Barrymore’s grandfather.)Although this film might see very dated and corny to you, at the time it was highly acclaimed for its use of special effects and for the performance of Fredric March.Themes of the story:Identity & ChaosIdentity & duplicityMan’s dual natureTampering with “God’s design”The power of evil to consume and overpower goodThe true nature of human existenceYou are to select one of the above themes—OR CREATE A THEME OF YOUR OWN. Compare and Contrast to a modern version of Jekyll and Hyde; for example, Walter White of Breaking Bad could be considered to be a Jekyll/Hyde. Or- what about a female version? There’s a Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde from 1995; it’s a comedy. Then there’s the trashy Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde (1971) a type of transgender version that’s an exploitation film. You could also compare/contrast J&H to other gothic or horror that you have read or viewed.Then select a scene from the film that illustrates your theme. Post 4-5 paragraphs

Read the activity below. Which skill(s) does it aim to develop? Which aspects of the activity make it appropriate for a one-to-one teaching context? Can you come up with a student profile for which this activity would be appropriate? (Hint: Think of student characteristics, e.g. age/level/reason for studying English, etc.)The teacher (T) and the student (S) analyze a job advertisement. The T asks the S to imagine that he/she is interested in applying for this job but wishes to call the company in order to obtain more information before doing so. The T and the S decide what kind of information they would like to find out. Then, they role-play the telephone exchange.The T asks the S to call him/her at an agreed time so that they can role-play the exchange over the phone. The T will play the part of the employer who has posted the advertisement and the S will play the part of the person who has read the advertisement and is interested in finding out more. The T also informs the S that he/she will be recording the phone call.In the next lesson, the T and the S analyze the recorded phone call identifying points that were successful as well as areas for improvement.Adapted from: Watkins (2014: 111)[Watkins, P.
